The house was built in 1912, but our roof top apartment was constructed by us in 2016. The center in this unique apartment is one huge room with a top-modern kitchen with all equipment, living area, dining area and library. Windows covers a big part of the south side and it is all dominated by a half round window measuring 3x4 meters. Due to the location it is a quiet oasis even though it is situated on a street full of bars and restaurants. At the same level as the big room there is an 27 sqm L-shaped terrace facing the back yard and shaded by a big tree. From here there is a stair leading up the real gem of this apartment – a 40 sqm roof top terrace with a garden and outdoor kitchen. The vision You get over Berlin is an unobstructed 360 degree view. Total living area 185 square meters (1990 square feet) , 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms. The master bedroom is 35 sqm and have it´s own integrated bath room with a separate toilet. There is a big french balcony and a kingsize double bed. There is also a direct exit to the lower terrace. The kid bedroom has a big cupola window in the ceiling. Sleeps two . The third bedroom can also be used as a combined home office/guest room that comfortably sleeps two persons. That was how we used it. The main bathroom have both a shower and a bathtub. There is also a washing machine and a dry tumbler in a separate room.
